Reminder

If the dividend is not completely divisible by the divisor, then a number is left
over after dividing. This left over number is called the remainder. It is always

less than the divisor.

Mother had 17 sweets. She distributed the sweets in 5 children of her

neighborhoods. Mother gave 3 sweets to each. Thus 15 sweets were given by
equal grouping. What is the remainder?

17 – 15 = 2 sweets were left. These sweets

were remainder.

There is a relationship between divided divisor, quotient and remainder.

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

17 = 5 × 3 + 2

17 ÷ 5

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18

Properties of Division

1. If a non-zero number is divided by itself the quotient is1.

For example 56 ÷ 56 = 1 475 ÷ 475 = 3 3654 ÷ 3654 = 1

2. If a number is divided by 1, the quotient is the number itself.

For example, 75 ÷ 1 = 75 784 ÷ 1 = 784 5321 ÷ 1 = 5321

3. If zero is divided by any non-zero number, the quotient is 0.

For example, 47 ÷ 0 = 0 834 ÷ 0 = 0 0 ÷ 9536 = 0
